چکیده [English]

Although the importance of urban management in achieving sustainable urban development has become increasingly clear to the general public and urban managers, there is a wide range of contradictions and confusion regarding the content of urban management in China, which are considered amongst important practical barriers. This paper examines some of the issues faced by Chinese cities during the experience of urban management. The most interesting part is the need for a comprehensive understanding and a strategic model focusing on the Gwangju case study and its regional development to improve the capacities of the Chinese urban management. This paper, using some quantitative evaluation criteria, shows that implementing a comprehensive urban management strategy is beneficial in improving the urban management process.
